After having SlE for 19 yrs it would be awesome not to have take immune suppressors esecially Predisone.  The side effects of the drugs now is worse than the disease!!!!!

Living with Lupus is not stylish or chic but Lupus Awareness is.  Sharing what Lupus is, leads to awareness and builds understanding.  I am thriving while living with Lupus and aspire to create understanding and support for Lupus patients and those that love them.

En France nous tentons aussi de faire bouger les choses mais pas facile. http://buzzesante.wordpress.com/2011/05/05/lupus-campagne-de-sensibilisation-sur-le-web/

Lupus may have attacked my joints, my central nervous system, my heart - but it is not who I am and I will continue to fight like the rest of you. 

Without Lupus, I would be free to plan ahead - knowing that I’ll wake up pain-free, able to jump in the shower, cook breakfast for my kids, and take them to school without a second thought. My days would run smoothly and I’d never have to explain to anyone that although I look fine, I’m actually quite sick. I’d never have to ask my daughter to cook dinner, or my husband to help me tie my shoes.
